Double the Length, Half the Distance, 2011
Commissioned by Riverstone for their display home, The Palais.
Art Management: Artsource, WA.
The inspiration for this dynamic artwork came from my experience living on the outskirts of Beijing city for two months. The city limits were expanding at a rapid rate, the people, architecture, houses and markets are all in a state movement, even when seemingly static. Whole streets disappear overnight. Whole buildings created over a weekend.
I was interested in creating a work that could be contradictory, existing simultaneously in two opposing states; jumping between possibilities.
